4 Star

Life and Death in the Dark Hour.

A-1 Pictures bring us the second instalment of the dark Persona3, as the SEES continue their fight against the Shadow Arcana, it’s a life and death struggle to get rid of the Dark Hour.

It is the Dark Hour and the SEES are lit by the July full moon as they battle one of the Shadow Arcana Hierophant. Battling are Junpei Iori (Kosuke Toriumi, Aldnoah.Zero), Akihiko Sanada (Hikaru Midorikawa, Bleach), and Mitsuru Kirijo (Rie Tanaka, Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere), while Makoto Yuki (Akira Ishida, Ben-To) and Yukari Takeba (Megumi Toyoguchi, Black Lagoon) are fighting the Shadow Arcana Lovers with Fuuka Yamagishi (Mamiko Noto, Naruto: Shippuden) doing a great job of backup and support.

They are victorious and as they head off back to base they fail to see three strangers watching them from the roof tops, Takaya Sakaki (Nobutoshi Canna, Baccano!), Jin Shirato (Masaya Onosaka, One Piece)
and Chidori Yoshino (Miyuki Sawashiro, Fairy Tail) are not too pleased with the SEES’s efforts within the Dark Hour.

Flushed with their success they have some down time and hit Yakushima’s beach and chill out. The guys try and find a girlfriend, with Junpei being the most enthusiastic and it is when they spot a girl on a pier that the guys get stuck in, but Junpei and Akihiko are rebuffed and Makoto has some success but when they spot people with white lab coats she runs off.

Later that evening at the Kirijo family home it is time for revelations, about the origin of the Dark Hour. New people are found to have the potential to swell the members of SEES, to end the Dark Hour by destroying the twelve Arcana Shadows within the labyrinth.

A great follow on to the first film and a great dark and dangerous way to spend 93 minutes.
